The Texas Education Agency publishes STAAR report cards for all students every year. These STAAR report cards are often referred to as Confidential Student Reports (CSR). To improve communication and transparency with educators and families, TEA has conducted an overhaul of the STAAR report card. The goal of the redesign is to create a family-friendly report on student progress, specifically highlighting growth and improvement as much as proficiency, while giving parents concrete tools to help with student learning. It will be available starting in June 2017.

Per Texas HB 462, resources and services provided by Region 9 ESC are solely aligned with, and designed to support, the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skill (TEKS) adopted by the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE).
